Create a folder or shortcut without a name
http://www.neowin.net/forum/lofiversion/index.php/t187826.html
Hit Alt + 0160 instead of typing a space.
You will find that you can only have one file per folder with that name.
Cannot rename XXXX: A file with the name you specified already exists.
Specify a different file name.
Is there any way to view a Folder window in List view with no names to the
files?
What would be the point of that in List view?
List view displays the contents of a folder as a list of file or folder
names preceded by small icons. This view is useful if your folder contains
many files and you want to scan the list for a file name. You can sort your
files and folders in this view; however, you cannot display your files in
groups.
You can remove the filenames in in Thumbnail View.
To turn off filenames, hold down the Shift key when you click to open a
folder in Windows Explorer or when you switch into thumbnail view. This will
turn of the file names, giving more space for the thumbnails. Doing it again
turns them back on.
You can right click a folder that is set for Thumbnail view,
hold down the Shift key and click on Open. If the file and folder names
were displayed, they won't be now.
With the folder open, click View and change it to anything,
except Thumbnails. Now, hold down the Shift key, click View and click
Thumbnails. File and folder names should not be displayed now.
This is a feature that allows for more thumbnails to be displayed on the
screen at one time.
On my machine in Full Screen view (F11) without Common Tasks or the Folders
pane showing, I can get six columns and five full rows to display without
the names. I can get six columns and four full rows to display with the
names. That is 30 thumbnails displayed without the names compared to 24
thumbnails displayed with the names. Depending on what you're doing, this
can have its advantages.

Hope this helps. Let us know.
